More People Than Ever Want ObamaCare Repealed

Bad news for Team Obama, ObamaCare is more unpopular than it has ever been according to new Fox News poll and more people than ever want the legislation repealed.

A record number of voters want the 2010 Affordable Care Act repealed entirely, while sizable majorities say they are worried about their health care under the new law and expect their medical costs will go up, according to a new Fox News poll.

The poll, released Wednesday, finds that 58 percent of voters favor repealing all (39 percent) or some (19 percent) of President Obama’s signature legislative achievement.

Another 19 percent would leave the law as is, while 17 percent would expand its coverage further.

The 39 percent who want to repeal the health care law entirely is a record high, up from 30 percent who felt that way in March 2013.

The differing views follow partisan lines: Most Republicans favor repealing all (65 percent) or parts of the health care law (18 percent), while most Democrats want to see the law expanded (31 percent) or kept in place as-is (30 percent).

A 62-percent majority of independents favors repealing at least some of the law.

Nearly three times as many voters say the health care law makes them feel more worried (66 percent) rather than reassured (23 percent). And the anxiety is rising -- the number feeling worried is up 15 percentage points since July 2012, soon after the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the law constitutional last year.

These numbers come just days after Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius admitted the administration was in talks with the NBA and the NFL to help promote ObamaCare. It also looks like the administration is trying to get Hollywood celebrities onboard to

Officials working to implement President Obama’s signature program recognize the need to generate buzz, and are working around the clock to come up with a marketing campaign that convinces young people to participate.

They’re reaching out to the NFL, the NBA and Hollywood for help, and counting down the days to Oct. 1, when enrollment in the exchanges officially begins.

The administration is in a good position to secure splashy endorsements, as Obama’s 2008 and 2012 campaigns had a deep bench of celebrity surrogates.

“Beyoncé all but took on the first lady’s ‘Let’s Move!’ platform, so imagine the pull Obama will have to sell healthcare,” said one former administration official.

“Maybe Jay-Z will even help out,” the official added.

Celebrity endorsements, slick ad campaigns and cutting-edge online enrollment would all serve one overriding purpose for the White House: connecting young, healthy people with their new healthcare benefits.

ObamaCare isn't getting repealed, not under this President anyway. The best we can hope for is that Congress will defund it or that it will collapse on itself.
